Am I cooked? Dropped out of uni due to anxiety and personal issues, but I need a job to get out of my living situation (horrible roommates). What jobs can I do that don't require a degree or certificate or experience? I can move anywhere and will do basically anything to get on my feet. What are the best options for getting a job quickly?

If you had to decide this year, would you stay in your job… or is it time to start looking? 2026 is shaping up to be the year of job hugging. Some of our career experts weighed in on whether staying put or job hunting makes more sense right now. So tell us — Team Hug or Team Hunt??

I'm trying to start my career I'm doing something I'm passionate about but I'm getting really disheartened because I don't think anyone wants me and I want to show everybody that I'm worth something I have lots of clearances and more I would like a job where I can help people and if you think I would be suitable I wouldn't mind talking to someone about this helping me get into position where I can help people

I need advice on how to build a good professional network and my current network isn't very helpful or active. How can I expand my network in other directions, so my connections are useful for referrals? Has anyone had a good experience with professional networking events and what were they?

Bummed...is anyone else finding it really tough to get a job in Australia right now? The job market can be tricky, and sometimes it feels like no matter what you try, it’s hard to get noticed. What’s one tip or strategy that actually helped you land a job? Share your tips, they might help others like me!

I'm almost 36 and have never had a 'career'. I've been a SAHM for nearly 13 years, working odd jobs here and there. Latest was 2 years in a café and I absolutely hated it. I have worked in child safety and have a half completed Cert IV, but hated that job too and never want to work in the industry again. I also hate studying and don't have 3-5 years to commit to something I have no passion for. So how do people know what they want to do and find a job they don't hate?

Job hunting on a Bridging Visa – advice needed I’ve been applying for roles on Seek and other platforms for over a year with no interviews, only automated rejections. I’m currently on a bridging visa awaiting my partner visa, with full working rights. Is it common to struggle finding work on a bridging visa? Recruiters haven’t responded either. I’m considering trade certificates or other pathways and would appreciate any advice. Trying to stay positive and keep going.

I watched most of the video that mentioned a certificate, but I have not yet received it. Is this a bug, or is there another reason for the delay?
